Question 7 - Spreading Phenomena

In the context of the classic SI, SIS, and SIR epidemiological models, which of the following statements is incorrect ? A. In the Susceptible-Infected (SI) model, each individual in the population is assumed to be either healthy or infected B. In the Susceptible-Infected-Susceptible (SIS) model, an individual who becomes infected with the disease can recover and return to the susceptible state, allowing reinfection C. In the Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) model, individuals who have been infected acquire immunity or die from the disease and therefore do not become susceptible again D. Assuming a transmission rate of β〈k〉 and a rate of recovery of μi, all three models predict that the epidemic ends only after every individual has been infected at least once E.

Question 6 - Network Robustness

Regarding the robustness of complex networks, which of the following statements is false ? A. A network with maximal robustness has a hub-and-spoke topology, with bimodal degree distribution B. Scale-free networks with γ > 3 behave like random networks with respect to random failures C. In comparison with random networks, scale-free networks have enhanced robustness D. Hubs ensure robustness against random failures, but make networks vulnerable to attacks E. None of the above Original idea by: Mylena Roberta
